A koala clings to the branch of a tree against a bold red background in this vintage-style poster art for Pan Am, titled "Australia - New Zealand by Clipper." The koala, found only in eastern Australia, has long been a favorite shorthand for the country in travel art, and here it carries the invitation across the Pacific to both nations. This is a modern restored rendering, and the date and artist of any original are not recorded here. Pan Am named its airliners Clippers after the fast sailing ships of the nineteenth century, a name that suited its long ocean crossings to the South Pacific.
The bag is made from 10-ounce canvas of 80% recycled cotton and 20% cotton. The recycled fibers are collected from garment-cutting waste and then intertwined with cotton for added strength and durability. Self-fabric handles. Dimensions: 15.75" h x 15.25" w; approx. 240 cubic inches.
